The Alcatraz East Crime Museum takes an in-depth look into American crime history with 5 unique galleries that are spread over two floors! While exploring the museum, you’ll discover more than 100 interactive displays in both the permanent galleries and the temporary exhibits. One of the most interesting exhibits is the “Get-away Cars” display, which features Ted Bundy’s Volkswagen Beetle and the white Ford Bronco from the televised O.J. Simpson chase!
